More books by Dorothea Benton Frank

I have been going through her books like they were potato chips (You can't read just one). I enjoy the history she adds. They are romances without porn or sentimentality. So here is my list far the past couple of weeks: Folly Beach, The Hurricane Sisters, The Last Original Wife, Lowcountry Summer and Sullivans Island. All nice, light reads. Probably need to get back to reading my classics.

Without Warning by David Rosenfelt


I have read a couple of Rosenfelt's dog books before and liked them. Without Warning is a stand alone mystery, thriller maybe too strong of a description. I would still rank it with my cozy mysteries. This is good because cozy mysteries are my favorite reads for leisure. this is a book that keeps you guessing but you can read it alone at night and not have trouble going to sleep. I picked it up and to read anytime I had a free moment. Would definitely recommend.

The Four Agreements



Because of a recommendation on one of the blog I follow, I picked up The Four Agreements by Don Miguel Ruiz at the library. Over the next 2 days, I skimmed most of the first 24 pages but read the rest of the book. I liked the ideas presented so much that I bought the book and the companion book, The Four Agreements Companion Book: Using the Four Agreements to Master the Dream of Your Life (Toltec Wisdom). I feel this is a book that deserves rereading.
